deeble I did use IE7 when it first came out, but I really didn't like it very much. I got used to the tabbed browsing, but had problems with other things (I don't remember exactly what now though, I'm afraid). It was enough to make me revert back to IE6 though.....

Online vs. face-to-face classes...

jeepstergirl @jeepstergirl (396) • United States 25 Jan 07

what are your opinions on these? Which would you rather take? Which do you feel you learn more in? Which fits your lifestyle better?

8 responses

deeble I think they both have plus points really.. Face to face classes tend to give you more motivation to carry on with, and complete the course. Where as online classes can give you the opportunity to do something you might not otherwise get the chance to do.

deeble I've always found the net interesting. But it became much more than that, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I've found so much support through breast cancer support forums/websites. I think I'd really struggle without that kind of support now.
